1998 Nissan Frontier - Cover Girl

When you look at trucks in a magazine or on the show field that really standout, usually the first thought that comes to mind is; "that guy built a sick truck".

That assumption is true for most minitrucks, because it is mainly guys who own them, build them, and drive them. But, every once in a while, we come across some females who bust out with some very badass trucks. And when they do, all the guys generally stare in amazement that women are building trucks just as good as any guy out there.

Liz Thomlinson is one of these ladies of Mini Truckin' who is out to make her own way in the scene. She has been involved for the last four years and decided that it was time to start a project of her very own. With a little searching she found a `98 Nissan Frontier that was already 'bagged and not too far from her. With the truck now sitting in her driveway, she quickly learned that the truck wasn't in the best condition. In fact, the suspension was so hacked up and falling apart, that it wasn't safe to drive. She made a phone call to Big Bill Watson at Phat Designs and a deal was made in order to get the Frontier's condition back up to par. All the suspension had to go and new components were used to make it right. Once the truck was re-bagged, Liz had Bill perform a few more modifications, giving the truck a more personalized feeling. When all was said and done the truck spent eight months in the shop under the knife, and thousands of Liz's hard-earned greenbacks.

Since day one, Liz made sure she had a direct influence in all that was done to her Nissan. In eight months of total build time, Liz created a clean Frontier that any other minitruck would have a tough time beating. Her ride serves as a shining example of what can be accomplished if you put your mind to something and keep at it until your dream is finally realized. We hope you enjoy poring over the images of this incredible Frontier. No matter how sick you think the truck is by looking at the images, you must see this truck in person to appreciate how incredibly detailed and visually pleasing it truly is.
